craft inspired by the most haunted forest in the world - Hoia Baciu forest in Transylvania

About Hoia Home & Craft

I’ve combined my passions — candle making, pottery and linoprinting — to create Hoia Home. Every piece is crafted with the finest materials and a whole lot of love, designed to bring warmth and character into your space.

The name Hoia Home is inspired by the forest we live near — the mysterious and infamous Hoia Bacău Forest. This enchanting and often whispered-about woodland shapes the spirit of our brand, blending nature’s magic with handcrafted beauty.

About me:

Hi, I’m Jenny! Originally from Sweden, I spent over 20 wonderful years living in London, UK. Now, I’ve embraced a new chapter by moving part time to Romania, settling near the mysterious Hoia Bacău Forest with my Romanian partner.

This blog is my space to share the adventure of building a life here — from discovering local traditions and recipes to learning new skills and exploring the rich culture and folklore that surround us. Please read my blog posts about Romanian folklore, mysteries and paranormal activities!

Join me as I navigate this exciting journey, sharing stories, insights, and everything I uncover along the way. Whether you’re curious about life in Romania or just love exploring new places and ideas, there’s something here for you.
